Nice to see someone talking about real numbers. NC 20,000 gallons 18x40 gunite with 8x8 spill over spa and gas heater. $138k. No decking, no landscaping. Another $26k for automatic pool cover. Hope my kid gets a swimming scholarship because I just blew her college fund.

Thank you for sharing your pool installation numbers

I grew up with a pool always wanted my own even when i live in a subdivision. My personal pool was really important to me and family. I just had my fiberglass with turbotwist slide all concerte and decorative brick done pluse landscaping a little over 100k. Washington state. I operate everything from phone. Crom the pool cover to the led lights. Expensive but well worth it!!

New AGP owner (and subscriber, thanks Steve!), just filled last weekend! Intex 9'x18'x52" Ultra XTR with SWG, solar cover and roller, cleaning kit, $1400 last Oct. With equipment rentals to level the ground / regrade, resulting grass seed, landscape fabric, base sand, 2x6 PT base edge, chemicals, total around $3500. New patio furniture for the wife with patio heater $1500. Pretty on the mark at $5000 for a decent above ground pool estimate!

Hi Steve, what is a gunite pool ? I heard about.

Gunite, shotcrete, cast, ICF, tile pools...these are all just concrete pools. How the concrete is placed and finished defines the terminology but to the end users these should all be considered "concrete pools"

Hi steve im looking for pool installation companies that would be interested in taking on more clients know any

We install gunite and fiberglass and as the years go by its harder to justify offering gunite pools. Fiberglass is simply a better option for 90% of the people serious about a pool. Lower cost up front, lower cost to maintain, less for repairs and the gelcoats last for decades. If you live in a million dollar home and want a $250k backyard, a custom gunite pool is the answer. But if your going to spend $70k gunite pool with marcite plaster, cheap coping and standard 6x6 tile you're making a poor decision.

I agree, that’s basically what I inherited with my house. It was 20x40 sport pool installed in 1998 for 35,000. It cost me 25,000 two years ago to replace tile and redo plaster. No way I would do gunite if I were building a new pool, unless it was high end luxury house.

@@danlah1303 I feel your pain... In the winter we earn a living off replastering 10-15 year old gunite pools. The people calling for new gel coats on fiberglass pools had their pool installed 25, 30 and even 40 years ago. I still love gunite pools, but when I decide to put one in my backyard fiberglass is going in.

I have to say that I like the shorter beard versus that really bushy beard a year ago
